Daimler quietly discontinued Maybach last year but a new report is indicating the brand could be revived.

Daimler quietly discontinued Maybach last year but a new report is indicating the brand could be revived.

Autobild says there is a "high probability" that either the Mercedes S-Class Pullman or S-Class extra-long wheelbase will carry Maybach moniker. Additional information is limited but the publication suggests the latter of the two models is more likely to carry the prestigious name.

Little is known about the S-Class extra-long wheelbase but it is expected to measure approximately 200mm (7.8 inches) longer than the long-wheelbase variant. It is also slated to have a 2+2 seating arrangement as opposed to the Pullman which is expected to have a 2+2+2 setup.
